Keiser Students Have Winning Poster

Two students from Keiser College of Fort Lauderdale designed the winning poster for the 2001 International Mayor's Gala.

The design by JoAnne Centore of Tamarac and Mariana Breitman of Coral Springs was selected from more than 15 entries.

"I think it's an honor. It will be great for my portfolio," said Centore, who recently graduated and plans to be an ad designer.

Breitman will graduate this fall and wants to work for a newspaper or magazine.

The students, both computer graphic and design majors, took about a day to complete the poster on a Macintosh computer. Their work was used to promote the 2001 International Mayor's Gala at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 in Fort Lauderdale, a benefit for the Symphony of the Americas.

"I thought it was wonderful and vibrant," symphony board member Judy Keiser said of the poster. "It was displayed at the main table and I got several comments on what a good job they had done."
